Is he the greatest director this gen? He's already directed two highly rated games and it probably won't be long until his third game of this gen is out. Meanwhile other prolific directors are struggling to reach up to expectations.
>>334688064
Maybe if he could optimize DSIII the shit is in window mode and 800x600 and there is no difference in FPS from that and 1440x900.
He's certainly made a name for himself. I'm excited to see what he's going to do now that he claims the Souls series is over.
He need to get rid of From Software since it workers are pretty shit now and join to Japan Studio
>>334688165
He didn't say that. He said the Souls series in its current shape would end. Meaning that the next Souls would be drastically different. But the Souls series isn't over.
>>334688134
Sounds like CPU bottleneck. CPU?
>>334688274
Isn't their contract with bamco over? Who owns the name to the Dark Souls games?
>>334688064
that neck fluff
Can't believe the pace of the fucker
>>334688376
Bamco owns the IP. I've read their contract was only for three games. It's possible they'll renegotiate their contracts after DaS3.
>>334688064
Considering that DS1 was objectively the best game of last gen and Bloodborne the best thus far this gen, I have no reason to believe why he isn't the best triple A game designer alive right now.
>>334688376
Bamco owns the rights to DaS.
Bloodborne performing quite well commercially convinced Sony that it worth locking From down for another two SCEJ collaborations for the PS4, so presumably Miyazaki will be involved with those in some capacity. Only question is, what'll they do? I hope they give the Souls formula a rest for at least a few years and do something genuinely different.
>>334690175
I heard that one of those 2 games under contract with Sony might be a VR game, which I hope its not, because that might be a gimmicky piece of shit
>>334690228
Yeah, since the guy on NeoFAG broke the news about the subsequent two From games with SCEJ (And he's got a flawless track record with calling Sony-related shit, so I don't really doubt him), they've been revealed to have signed on for a PSVR game, so maybe a new King's Field?
But yeah, I'm in your boat, I really do hope that's just some side project.
>>334690175
they'll return to their roots and make a first person arpg that runs at 5fps.
SO THIS IS THE POWER OF THE GREAT MEMEZAKI

No kidding, ever since entering Lothric there was incredible framing surrounding that sun.

He's good, but Souls formula got boring after 5 similar games. I'd like to see a completely new franchise from him.

It's a god damn video game.

>Dark Souls is my life’s work. Everything I came up with for Dark Souls 3 is based on my personal preferences. However, Dark Souls 3 is also actually the turning point for the franchise. This project was launched by the previous From Software management, before I was appointed president. In that sense, Dark Souls 3 is the turning point for the series.
>As president of From Software, I am planning to launch several new projects. I can’t quite specify exactly what they are. Those could be something sci-fi, but you’ll have to stay tuned for more about that in the future.
Turning point and not finale as some believe.
>>334691332
>one trick pony
Not really. BB was drastically different from DaS. If you play BB like DaS, you'll get fucked.
>>334691364
Yeah the giant sword carried on one shoulder is perfectly fine but fuck me clouds behind the sun I will ass rage my fucking face off.
You open up a set of doors and step through into that, the framing is perfect without ever taking control away from the player. Get fucked you entry level fucking retard.
Theres another moment that similar right at the last boss where you realise that the Sun is melting, dripping or whatever into the very final enemy, which is such an amazing fucking ride in and of itself. There are loads and loads of problems with the Souls series but nothing else even comes close to this level of thought and care.
>>334691514
>magic, dragons, zombies, skellingtons and everything else that's unrealistic
All of that is fine, however a dumb ball floating in the air is not
>>334688064
Just watch him go the way of Kojima and Kamoya now.
>>334692287
you mean he'll continue to make great games for years to come?
>>334692287
Kamiya? Isn't he still making great games? Kojima fucked MGSV up though, no denying that.
>>334691698
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/dark-souls-3-interview-it-wouldnt-be-right-to-cont/1100-6432425/
I think he's changed his view a little bit since then.
>>334688274
He literally said that
>It'd be a lie if I said I have no concerns about that. I don't think it'd be the right choice to continue indefinitely creating Souls and Bloodborne games. I'm considering Dark Souls 3 to be the big closure on the series. That's not just limited to me, but From Software and myself together want to aggressively make new things in the future. Dark Souls 3 will mark the last game where the development project began before I became president. The next title will be a game that was conceived while I was president. I believe that From Software has to create new things. There will be new types of games coming from us, and Dark Souls 3 is an important marker in the evolution of From Software.
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/dark-souls-3-interview-it-wouldnt-be-right-to-cont/1100-6432425/
>>334692326
And he'll depart with his old team, which will throw them into a downward spiral of shitty games.
>>334692494
>From Software president will leave From Software
You're retarded.
>>334692460
>>334692350
Well then I guess the end of DaS is really coming. Whatever next is going to be something fresh.
>>334691364
>>334691831
>The sun can't shine through the clouds
It's plain to see that he's creatively bankrupt as far as Souls games go. Playing 3 right now and I'm bloody tired of the same old shit everywhere. Currently in the catacombs and I might as well be in fucking DS1. The fucking Artorias 2.0 faggot was awful as well.
>>334692684
I guess you'd think that if you didn't play Bloodborne
>>334692684
You haven't seen shit yet.
>>334692560
President of ass. They were bought by another company.
>>334692684
It's clearly the culmination of everything they've learned from each of the Souls games and BB (with luckily very little DaS2 influence). Bosses are designed in a more Demon's Souls manner while being much more aggressive a la Bloodborne, same as the regular enemies. Things that didn't work well before have been reworked to be better and things that did work have been further refined.
You can see bits and pieces of influence from each of these games that came together to show it all off in the best possible way they could before coming to a complete close on the series. It's the best way they could've possibly gone out.
>>334690904
but i enjoyed ds2
ds3 is okay too
>>334692863
I haven't played DS2 yet. Thinking about getting the SOTFS edition for 30 bucks and seeing if its as bad as /v/ says it is.
>>334692863
>but i enjoyed ds2
Opinion discarded
>>334688064
So creatively bankrupt that he rehashes the same game over and over.
"Great" my ass.
>>334692932
Its not. The only thing keeping me from replaying it is the movement feels sort of bad.
If I can live with Demons Souls only having like three good bosses, or Dark Souls quality doing a nosedive after anor londo, I can get over most of Dark Souls 2's flaws too.
>>334690904
That's because DS2 looked like dogshit compared to the first build presented at E3.
They didn't do the same mistake with DS3
>>334693085
The only thing a rehash was DaS2 and he didn't even work on that. Bloodborne is a legitimate spin-off and DaS3 does everything a sequel should do. I hope you realize he was director for Armored Core aswell.
>>334693085
Name a director with better games under his belt from the past five years.
That's right, you can't. DaS-BB-DaS3 are all must-plays that he made in a relatively short time span.
>>334693257
He directed Demon's Souls too did he not?
>>334693294
Yeah but that was a while ago. OP is about fairly recent time span.
>>334693193
>The only thing a rehash was DaS2
You clearly haven't played DS3
>>334693257
Played DaS and half of DaS2 and had enough. Maybe I'll buy it in 2 years on a sale.
>>334693375
Explain to me how DS3 is a rehash in any way that sequel typically isn't. You wanted something drastically different from DaS? Play Bloodborne. You wanted a sequel to DaS? Play DaS3. You're just spouting shit you picked up from /v/ because you think it makes you look smart on a site intended for waifuposting.
>>334692932
>taking anything /v/ says seriously
don't do that.
>>334693375
I'd have been disappointed if they didn't reuse some memorable things from their past games.
>>334693503
>ds2 which added tons of original things is a rehash
>ds3 which rehashed huge chunks isn't a rehash
>>334694009
>ds3 which rehashed huge chunks
Explain to me what chunks they were.
Ready for Armored Souls guys?
>>334694335
He can't pull this off.
>>334694368
How? Giving the soul formula to AC would be pretty easy
they rushed DS3 so they could go back to their true baby: BB2.
>>334695232
Pls no. BB is perfectly concluded. Don't muddle up the lore with an unnecessary sequel.
>>334695578
it's a prequel, the adventures of maria and gehrman.
>>334695678
The first Souls game where the protagonist is an actual character? Interesting.
>>334691271
Looks gorgeous.
>>334696549
>>334691271
You can find this shit in literally any game that isn't the most linear closed down corridor game out there. It's of so little gameplay impact that I can't believe autists even take the time to take these shots. Probably didn't start playing games until Xbox 360.
>>334693193
>I hope you realize he was director for Armored Core aswell.
Yeah the worst one. AC4 killed the franchise,
I like Miyazaki, but come on he's an one trick pony by now.
